Abstract: A toggle lever connection for connecting at least two toggle levers is disclosed. The toggle levers each include two grooves arranged opposite each other. The toggle lever connection includes a frame and a slider with one hook per toggle lever. The frame and the slider run into each other and can be displaced in relation to each other between a first, open position, in which the toggle lever connection can be placed onto the at least two toggle levers or removed therefrom, and a second, closed position, in which the hooks grip into the grooves of the at least two toggle levers, thereby locking the toggle lever connection to the toggle levers.

Abstract: A method for producing a biologically active, microorganism-containing aqueous solution or suspension including steps of the provision of water, the optional addition of a fine-grained mineral or organic material to the water and mixing of this materials into the water in order to obtain a suspension, the addition of compost to the suspension, and resting the suspension in an airtight environment for at least one week at a temperature of less than 15° C. This method allows the production of a biologically active, microorganism-containing solution or suspension which can be added to natural bodies of water or to soil, and may be used for external and internal application in humans and animals.

Abstract: An overload release includes a bimetallic element, a tripping slide, a latch and an energy store. In an overload situation the bimetallic element actuates the tripping slide; as a result, the tripping slide actuates the latch, and as a result, the latch allows the movement of the energy store. The latch is provided with a latch area and the energy store is provided with a latching area, the two areas mechanically interacting in the latched state and the latch area being released from the latching area in the unlatched state, when there is an overload, to allow the movement of the energy store. Further, the latch area or the latching area includes a projection.

Abstract: A method is proposed for producing a biologically active, microorganism-containing aqueous solution or suspension comprising the following steps: i) provision of water; ii) the optional addition of a fine-grained mineral or organic material to the water and mixing of this materials into the water in order to obtain a suspension; iii) addition of compost to the suspension; iv) resting the suspension in an airtight environment for at least one week at a temperature of less than 15° C. This method allows the production of a biologically active, microorganism-containing solution or suspension, which can be added for example to improve the water quality of natural bodies of water in particular, but which is also suitable for enhancing soil and also for an external and internal application in humans and animals.
